This is a tiny UNIX shell, implemented in C.

The shell supports:

• Simple commands, i.e. vim, echo hello world etc.
• Pipelines, i.e. `ls | wc -l'.
• File redirection, i.e. echo hello > x and cat < x | grep hello.

However, it does not support:

• >> append operator.
• 2> or 2>&1 or anything more complex.
• &, although that should be trivial to add.
• Globs, variables, conditionals, loops, functions and it will never be a proper POSIX shell.

Only a toy. Use and explore at your own risk. However, PRs are welcome for bugfixes, or if the additional functionality would not increase the complexity.
